 Ftoprie!ors of Warier's Safe Cure"
 That we may emphasize and clearly explain the relation t,e kidneys sustain to the general health, and how much is dependent upon then, we propose, mel lphoricoly speaking, to take one from me human body, place in the wash howl before Us, and examine it for the public benefit. ... .-s...-.
 You will imagine that we have before aa body shaped like a bean, smooth gHd glisteNinq, about four inches in laU gth, two in width and one in thick ngss. It ordinarily weighs in the adult m%ia ahout five ounces, but is somewhat lighter in the female. A small organ? you sNy. But understand, the body of tne average size man contains about 'sn quay,s Qf Hood, of Hhich every drop posses .hr0ug'. bese filters or seWers, as they may he called md1y Hines dny, as often as the heart, making complete revolution in Hree minutes. From the Jlo0L they separate the waste material,
 working away steadily night and day, sleeping or waking. tireless as the heart itseii, and fully of as much impor ance;
 removing impurities from sixty-iiye gal !1as of Hood eaeh hour, or about forty nine barrels each day, or 9,l25 hogs heads year! What a wonder that the kidneys can last any length of time under this prodigious strain, treated and neglected as they are? r..
 We slice this delicate organ open langthwiae with our knife and will rough-
 ly describe it's interior: s"'
 We find it to be of reddish-brown color, soit and easily torn, filled with thrcad-like, startin. from the arteries, ending in little tuft about midway from
 the outside opening of cavity of con siderable size, which is called the pelvis, or, roughly speaking, q sack, which is for the purpose of holding the water to
 further undergo puriication before it
 passes down from here into the ureters, and so on to the outside of the body. These little tubes are the filters which do their work automatically, and right here ts Where the disease Cf the kidney first beQiHs.
 Doing the vast amount of work which they are obliged to, from the slightest
 irregularity in our habits, from cold,
 from high living, from stimulants or a thousand and one other causes which occur every day, they become somewhat weakened in their nerve force.
 What is the result? Congestion or, stoppage of the current of blood in the small blood vessels surrounding them, which become blocked; these delicate membranes are irritated; inflammation is set up, then pus is formed, which col lects in the pelvis or sac the tubes arc at first partially, and soon. gre totally, unable to do their work. .,. The pelvic sac goes on disterding with this corrup. ton, pressing upon the blood vessels. All this time, remember, the blood, which is entering the kidneys to be fll-. fei2d, F pG5StaJ through Mis terrible, dis 9il$ttag pHS, Tor 1t cannot take any other route ~
 Step and think of it for moment. Do you realize the importance, nay the vital necessity, of having the kidneys in order? Can you expect when they are diseased or obstructcd, no matter how little, thot you can have pure blood and 2Sc2pe 6iseGSeE It would he just as req. Sona1e 10 expect, if pest-hou wers SCI across Broadway and countless thou sands were compelled togo through its Pestilentiel doors, ana escape from cor1ta- s!on and disease, as for one to expect he. blood to escape pollution when con- HraGt.y running through q diseased kid ney.
 Now, what is the result? Why, that the blood takes up and deposits this po'son as 1t sweeps along into every DIE 2, into every inch of muscle, tissue, Jafu and bone, from your. head to. your !eGt. And whenever, from hereditary influence or othewise, sOme part of the body is weaker than another, oountfess tra' of diseases is esta blished, such. as 1 -0nsum. ."n in weak lungs, dyspepsia, where tlre is delicate stoiTach: ] lerrousl a, insanity, paralysis or heart taease ID hose who have weak. nerves. .,l
